Probably Bayreuther, then Cecconi for me. No one else down here really moves the needle much for me at this point. Maybe Back, eventually.

 

[Zapp]

Oskar Bäck here.

He's getting slept on too hard.

Hell when he and Eriksson got promoted to 2nd line last game it was the most offense Sweden had all tournament.

 

[Zrhutch]

We are now FIRMLY in “just pick a name” range.

 

[Smelling Salt]

Oskar "Johann Sebastian" Bäck

 

[MrHeiskanen]

How does L'Esperance get #11.. that's messed.

 

[LT]

How does L'Esperance get #11.. that's messed.

Why shouldn't he after being tied for #10?

 

[MrHeiskanen]

1) Robertson
2) Dellandrea
3) Harley
4) Gurianov
5) Oettinger
6) Damiani
7) Mascherin
8) Eriksson
9) Felhaber
10) Gleason
11) Cecconi

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Why shouldn't he after being tied for #10?

Because if the 9 people who voted for Gleason (#10) voted for Peterson.. he is #11. There was like 3-4 players with 3-4 votes and two players with 9 votes.

 

[Zapp]

Because if the 9 people who voted for Gleason (#10) voted for Peterson.. he is #11. There was like 3-4 players with 3-4 votes and two players with 9 votes.

Yeah that vote didn't make L'Esperance a lock for 12, not sure why you did it this way.

 

[LT]

Because if the 9 people who voted for Gleason (#10) voted for Peterson.. he is #11. There was like 3-4 players with 3-4 votes and two players with 9 votes.

Or I could’ve called it at any point when L’Esperance was leading by one, which happened a few times. We can play this game over and over again. This is how poll tiebreakers typically work.

It’s a non-issue that’s being made into something for no apparent reason. We’re dropping it now, as we’ve moved on.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

The issue is that L'Esperance is now #11 on the board when he shouldn't be in the top 20.

 

[Zrhutch]

Aight this is kinda funny

How do any of us know enough about the Stars system to really debate the merits of who’s 11-12 and who’s not

 

[Satan]

I voted for Kiviranta - but I like Back and Peterson here too

 

[Kcb12345]

Voted Cecconi but Back impressed me so I'm fine with him here too.

 

[AveryStar4Eva]

Oscar Back then Tufte for me. He sucks for where he got picked, but could still be an effective bottom six player.

 

[M88K]

The issue is that L'Esperance is now #11 on the board when he shouldn't be in the top 20.

Yeah but Dellandrea shouldn't be #2, Gurianov shouldn't be #4, Damiani should be in the top 5. I mean with every one of this boards picks something is massively wrong save for Robertson at #1, so to nitpick one trivial 11th rank is just kind of weird, no?

 

[Magic Mittens]

Voting for Back also

Point, Cecconi, Peterson, Bay and Tufte are probably my next 5 in some undetermined order

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Yeah but Dellandrea shouldn't be #2, Gurianov shouldn't be #4, Damiani should be in the top 5. I mean with every one of this boards picks something is massively wrong save for Robertson at #1, so to nitpick one trivial 11th rank is just kind of weird, no?

All the other picks are perfect.

But for real, the other ones are within 1 or 2 maybe 3.. this is the first pick where I'm like ... what.

 

[Johno]

Peterson here again

 

[eartotheground]

Yeah but Dellandrea shouldn't be #2, Gurianov shouldn't be #4, Damiani should be in the top 5. I mean with every one of this boards picks something is massively wrong save for Robertson at #1, so to nitpick one trivial 11th rank is just kind of weird, no?

are you being sarcastic, or do you really think you've got it nailed perfectly and everyone else is just clueless? not sure if i should be rolling my eyes or laughing..

 

[Johno]

Why are people having Bäck over Peterson. Size is king?

 

[joshik]

Cumano

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Why are people having Bäck over Peterson. Size is king?

I'd say both are very close. Back is a year younger, better defensively, has a higher floor and we got to watch him at World Juniors/Summer Showcase where Peterson is clips.
